Make-up Monday | My 'Beat The Heat' go-to look

Hey Beauties...

So for today's #MakeupMonday I decided i would share with you the Make-up look I have been loving this past week which is perfect for the heat/humidity we have been having in the UK recently, it stays put and it quick and simple to do. So I hope you like it!

So this is the overall look like I said simple, quick and easy to do giving you a nice glow and bronzed look.

For the face I have been loving:

Garnier Moisture Match Shine Be Gone - I don't have oily skin, my skin type is Normal/combination but this is perfect for the sticky weather and keeps my face grease and oil free with shine kept at a minimal.

Bourjois BB Bronzer- I have only been using this for a week or so but I do quite like how it gives you a nice healthy glow and doesn't seem to melt in the heat, it is a very light overage though which I don't mind and I have found it goes on the skin better if I use my Real Techniques Stippling Brush.

I do like to use a setting powder over the BB bronzer just because its a little too dewy for my liking and feel it sits on the skin better and I have been loving Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder Transparent this really does keep your face matt throughout the day even in the heat and humidity, Sadly I don't have a powder brush (yet) but I have been using myReal Techniques Blush Brush for now.

The passed week I have been using Bourjois Chocolate Bronzing Powder again I have only had this a week but it is great for a subtle contour below the cheek bones and applies perfectly using the Real Techniques Contour brush from the Core Collection

For my eyebrows there's no secret I use my Sleek Brow Kit I use the powder to create more of a natural look, for concealer I use MUA pro Concealer Kit you can read my review HERE ;) I apply the middle shade under my eyes, and the shade on the right just on my cheek bones in a C shape to the corner of my eye.

I like to resort to oily skin products in the heat too! I used a little sample of the Clarins matte lotion under my make up for a wedding last week and it lasted so well! Just started following your blog. xx

This is a lovely make-up look! its really glowy and bronzed!You seem to have lots of Real Technique brushes, I want to expand my collection of them, which would you recommend? I already have the expert face brush :)
